Abstract
Preventing unintentional pregnancy is one of the goals of a global public health policy to minimize effects on individuals, families, and society. Various contraceptive formulations with high effectiveness and acceptance, including intrauterine devices, hormonal patches for females, and condoms and vasectomy for males, have been developed and adopted over the last decades. However, distinct breakthroughs of contraceptive techniques have not yet been achieved, while the associated long-term adverse effects are insurmountable, such as endocrine system disorder along with hormone administration, invasive ligation, and slowly restored fertility after removal of intrauterine devices. Spurred by developments of nanomaterials and bionanotechnologies, advanced contraceptives could be fulfilled via nanomaterial solutions with much safer and more controllable and effective approaches to meet various and specific needs for women and men at different reproductive stages. Nanomedicine techniques have been extended to develop contraceptive methods, such as the targeted drug delivery and controlled release of hormone using nanocarriers for females and physical stimulation assisted vasectomy using functional nanomaterials via photothermal treatment or magnetic hyperthermia for males. Nanomaterial solutions for advanced contraceptives offer significantly improved biosafety, noninvasive administration, and controllable reversibility. This review summarizes the nanomaterial solutions to female and male contraceptives including the working mechanisms, clinical concerns, and their merits and demerits. This work also reviewed the nanomaterials that have been adopted in contraceptive applications. In addition, we further discuss safety considerations and future perspectives of nanomaterials in nanostrategy development for next-generation contraceptives. We expect that nanomaterials would potentially replace conventional materials for contraception in the near future.

Abstract
Nanocontraception has been proposed and received extensive attention in recent years for population control. However, currently developed methods for nanocontraception still face problems in efficacy and safety. Here, we propose catalysis-mediated oxidation as a new strategy for nanocontraception. With the catalytic production of highly oxidative species, male contraception was successfully achieved after the administration of black phosphorus nanosheets into the testes of male mice. Further mechanistic studies revealed that contraception was induced by oxidative stress and apoptosis of spermatogenesis cells. Meanwhile, the apoptosis of germ cells released testis antigen and induced immune cell infiltration, which enhanced reproductive damage. Notably, the introduced black phosphorus nanosheets naturally degraded during the catalytic oxidation process and ultimately converted to harmless phosphates, indicating the safety of the strategy. Furthermore, the catalysis-mediated strategy avoids utilizing additional inducers, such as near-infrared irradiation, magnetic fields, or ultrasound, which may cause severe pain. In summary, the proposed catalysis-mediated contraception can be a self-cleared, convenient, and safe strategy for controlling male fertility.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising strategy for permanent male sterilization owing to its easy operation, rapid heating, minimal invasiveness, and high spatiotemporal controllability. However, the currently available PTT for male sterilization utilizes irradiation sources in the first near-infrared window (NIR-I), which may suffer from incomplete sterilization due to the insufficient penetration depth of NIR-I light. Herein, we developed a facile one-pot hydrothermal synthetic method of cysteine-coated copper sulfide (Cys-CuS) nanosheets for the second NIR window (NIR-II) PTT-mediated permanent male sterilization. In this method, Cys acted not only as a template but also as a sulfur resource in the formation of Cys-CuS nanosheets. The obtained Cys-CuS nanosheets possessed good photothermal properties and satisfied deep-tissue light response capacity under 1064 nm laser exposure. Given this, the permanent male sterilization in vivo was readily achieved by Cys-CuS nanosheets in a rapid manner (only 40 s). To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that nanomaterial-mediated NIR-II PTT is applied for permanent male sterilization. We believe that the facilely prepared biocompatible Cys-CuS nanosheets can serve as a promising NIR-II light-responsive nanoknife to control the overpopulation of domestic pets and stray animals.

Abstract
Controlling populations of free-roaming dogs and cats poses a huge challenge worldwide. Non-surgical neutering strategies for male animals have been long pursued, but the implementation of the procedures developed has remained limited to date. As submitting the testes to high temperatures impairs spermatogenesis, the present study investigated localized application of magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia (MNH) to the testicles as a potential non-surgical sterilization method for animals. An intratesticular injection of a magnetic fluid composed of manganese-ferrite nanoparticles functionalized with citrate was administered followed by testicle exposure to an alternate magnetic field to generate localized heat. Testicular MNH was highly effective, causing progressive seminiferous tubule degeneration followed by substitution of the parenchyma with stromal tissue and gonadal atrophy, suggesting an irreversible process with few side effects to general animal health.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of an intratesticular injection of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on reproductive parameters and health of rats, and to evaluate the AgNPs biodistribution in order to develop a nanotechnological contraceptive agent for male animals. Treated animals received 220 μL of AgNPs solution (0.46 µg-Ag/ml) in each testicle and were euthanized: seven, 14, 28, and 56 days after injection. A significant decrease (p < 0.05) in the percentage of motile sperm in D7 (8.8%) was observed, comparing to the control (73.3%), D14 (86.0%), D28 (68.2%), and D56 (90.0%) groups. D7 group also presented a decrease (p < 0.05) in the percentage of normal spermatozoa. Additionally, D7 group showed an increase (p < 0.05) in abnormal midpiece and sperm head morphology compared to the Control group. Seminiferous tubules presented all germline cell types and spermatozoa for all groups. However, D7 group did not present spermatozoa in the epididymis, whereas some spermatozoa and cellular debris were visible in D14 and D28 groups. All animals presented hematological parameters, creatinine, and alanine aminotransferase values within the normal limits for Wistar rats. The percentage of silver found in the liver was always higher than in the other organs analyzed. A pioneering mathematical model is proposed, from which the half-life time of silver in the liver (17 days), spleen (23 days), lungs (30 days), and kidneys (35 days) was extracted. In conclusion, some acute and severe toxic effects were observed in sperm cells following intratesticular injection of AgNPs, although these effects were reversible. No adverse effects to general animal health were observed.

Abstract
Hyperthemia (>50 °C) induced heating damage of nearby normal organs and inflammatory diseases are the main challenges for photothermal therapy (PTT) of cancers. To overcome this limitation, a redox-responsive biomodal tumor-targeted nanoplatform is synthesized, which can achieve multispectral optoacoustic tomography/X-ray computed tomography imaging-guided low-temperature photothermal-radio combined therapy (PTT RT). In this study, Bi2 Se3 hollow nanocubes (HNCs) are first fabricated based on a mild cation exchange way and Kirkendall effect and then modified with hyaluronic acid (HA) through redox-cleavable linkage (-s-s-), thus enabling the HNC to target cancer cells overexpressing CD-44 and control the cargo release profile. Finally, gambogic acid (GA), a type of heat-shock protein (HSP) inhibitor, which is vital to cells resisting heating-caused damage is loaded, into Bi2 Se3 HNC. Such HNC-s-s-HA/GA under a mild NIR laser irradiation can induce efficient cancer cell apoptosis, achieving PTT under relatively low temperature (≈43 °C) with remarkable cancer cell damage efficiency. Furthermore, enhanced radiotherapy (RT) can also be experienced without depth limitation based on RT sensitizer Bi2 Se3 HNC. This research designs a facile way to synthesize Bi2 Se3 HNC-s-s-HA/GA possessing theranostic functionality and cancer cells-specific GSH, but also shows a low-temperature PTT RT method to cure tumors in a minimally invasive and highly efficient way.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as one of the promising methodologies for the treatment of cancer, and ideal photothermal agents need to be biodegradable and have strong optical absorbance in the near-infrared (NIR) optical window. Here, we report a new phthalocyanine molecule, 4OCSPC, which expands the absorbance edge to 850 nm. Under 808 nm NIR laser irradiation, 4OCSPC polymeric micelles showed robust photostability and a high photothermal conversion of 47.0%. Also, the 4OCSPC polymeric micelles exhibit a high in vivo PTT efficacy against 4T1 tumors in mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Development of the burgeoning number of photothermal therapy (PTT) agents has drawn a huge amount of interest, since PTT treatment is a powerful and effective alternative to traditional treatments. Optimal PTT agents should integrate some essential preconditions including negligible systemic toxicity, deep penetration into tumor tissues, and maximum laser energy absorbance. Unfortunately, only few of the PTT agents reported could meet all of the above mentioned conditions. METHODS Here, we report a brand new PTT agent through the encapsulation of NaGdF4:Yb,Tm@ NaGdF4:Yb (UCNPs) and an organic compound (C3) into poly-e-caprolactone-polyethylene-polyglycol (PCL-PEG) (PL-UC-C3 NPs). RESULTS UCNPs as an up-conversion material and C3 as a PTT agent both feature low cytotoxicity, and most importantly, UCNPs with superior conversion efficiency could efficiently absorb the energy of a 980 nm laser, transform the near-infrared laser light into visible light, and translate the palingenetic visible light to C3. The usage of a 980 nm laser ensures a deeper penetration and lower energy, while the highly efficient absorption and transformation process confers a cascade amplified hyperthermia for tumor treatment. CONCLUSION In this regard, our research provides a powerful and robust breakthrough for florescence/computed tomography imaging-guided PTT treatment, lighting up the clinical application in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Herein, we reported nitroxide radical-modified CuS nanoparticles (CuS-NO˙ NPs), and they exhibited a typical absorption peak at 1182 nm. Due to such a long wavelength absorbance, CuS-NO˙ NPs exhibited excellent therapeutic outcome and low damage to normal tissues. Besides, we simultaneously achieved CuS-NO˙ NPs for MRI and CT dual-modal imaging, which successfully provided a new strategy for imaging-guided tumor treatment, thus increasing potential clinical applications for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Introduction In recent years, near-infrared laser-induced photothermal therapy is being considered as a promising approach to kill tumors owing to its noninvasive nature and excellent antitumor efficiency. However, the lack of ideal photothermal agents hinders further development of this technology. Materials and methods Aiming at solving this long-standing obstacle, we report here about the polyethylene glycol (PEG)-DA modified copper sulfide (CuS) nanoparticles (NPs) (PEG-DA-CuS NPs), a kind of semiconductor photothermal agents that show excellent photothermal stability and high heat conversion efficiency. Results and discussion Owing to the surrounding PEG, the water solubility of CuS NPs was significantly improved when circulating in blood in the body. When the NPs reached the tumors and were irradiated by a 1,064 nm laser (1 W/cm2, 10 minutes), the local temperature increased above 90°C, triggering the retro Diels–Alder reaction. After the release of PEG chain, CuS NPs soon formed aggregates and enriched the tumor via the enhanced permeability and retention effect, promoting the efficacy of photothermal therapy. Conclusion Therefore, we believe PEG-DA-CuS NPs are able to serve as a kind of cytotoxic and efficient photothermal agent to kill cancer.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as one of the promising cancer therapy approaches. However, nanoparticles (NPs) which are used for PTT might be biopersistent and potentially toxic. The current research explores the promising use of Fe3O4 nanoflowers as nontoxic, efficient photothermal, and strong T2 type magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents for imaging-guided photothermal cancer therapy. In this study, a facile solvothermal method is used to fabricate PEG-coated Fe3O4 nanoflowers with controllable dimensions. Their successful fabrication, the effect of the reaction parameters, and their magnetic properties are investigated in depth. The therapeutic performance of the Fe3O4 nanoflowers (Fe-NFs) is evaluated and compared with commercially available black TiO2 nanoparticles (b-TiO2) under an 808 nm laser. The photothermal therapy efficiency of the Fe-NFs is observed to be better than that of the reported Fe3O4 nanoparticles. In vitro and in vivo investigation demonstrates that the therapeutic performance of the Fe-NFs is comparable to that of b-TiO2. Moreover, the Fe-NFs show excellent magnetic properties and magnetic resonance imaging capability to monitor therapeutic performance.

Abstract
Tumor hypoxia is one of the major challenges for the treatment of tumors, as it may negatively affect the efficacy of various anticancer modalities. In this study, a tumor-targeted redox-responsive composite biocatalyst is designed and fabricated, which may combine tumor starvation therapy and low-temperature photothermal therapy for the treatment of oxygen-deprived tumors. The nanosystem was prepared by loading porous hollow Prussian Blue nanoparticles (PHPBNs) with glucose oxidase (GOx) and then coating their surface with hyaluronic acid (HA) via redox-cleavable linkage, therefore allowing the nanocarrier to bind specifically with CD44-overexpressing tumor cells while also exerting control over the cargo release profile. The nanocarriers are designed to enhance the efficacy of the hypoxia-suppressed GOx-mediated starvation therapy by catalyzing the decomposition of intratumoral hydroperoxide into oxygen with PHPBNs, and the enhanced glucose depletion by the two complementary biocatalysts may consequently suppress the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) after photothermal treatment to reduce their resistance to the PHPBN-mediated low-temperature photothermal therapies.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica nanoshell (MSN) coating has been demonstrated as a versatile surface modification strategy for various kinds of inorganic functional nanoparticles, such as gold nanorods (GNRs), to achieve not only improved nanoparticle stability but also concomitant drug loading capability. However, limited drug loading capacity and low tumor accumulation rate in vivo are two major challenges for the biomedical applications of MSN-coated GNRs (GNR@MSN). In this study, by coating uniformly sized GNRs with MSN in an oil-water biphase reaction system, we have successfully synthesized a new bacteria-like GNR@MSN (i.e., bGNR@MSN) with a significantly enlarged pore size (4-8 nm) and surface area (470 m2/g). After PEGylation and highly efficient loading of doxorubicin (DOX, 40.9%, w/w), bGNR@MSN were used for positron emission tomography (PET, via facile and chelator-free 89Zr-labeling) and photoacoustic imaging-guided chemo-photothermal cancer therapy in vivo. PET imaging showed that 89Zr-labeled bGNR@MSN(DOX)-PEG can passively target to the 4T1 murine breast cancer-bearing mice with high efficiency (∼10 %ID/g), based on enhanced permeability and retention effect. Significantly enhanced chemo-photothermal combination therapy was also achieved due to excellent photothermal effect and near-infrared-light-triggered drug release by bGNR@MSN(DOX)-PEG at the tumor site. The promising results indicate great potential of bGNR@MSN-PEG nanoplatforms for future cancer diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) laser induced phototherapy has been considered as a noninvasive option for cancer therapy. Herein, we report plasmonic PEGylated molybdenum oxide nanoparticles (PEG-MoOx NPs) that were synthesized by using a facile hydrothermal method. The PEG-MoOx NPs exhibit broad absorption at the NIR biological window and remarkable photothermal conversion ability in the first (808 nm) and the second (1064 nm) windows. Moreover, the biocompatible PEG-MoOx NPs exhibit effective cellular uptake and could be eliminated gradually from the liver and spleen in mice. Studies on the therapeutic effects of these NPs under 808 and 1064 nm exposures with mild hyperthermia are conducted. According to the result, exposure to 1064 nm irradiation can not only effectively convert light into heat but also sensitize the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which exert dramatic cancer cell death and suppression in vivo due to the synergic effect of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). In marked contrast, 808 nm irradiation can only execute limited PTT to cancer cells, showing a relatively low inhibition rate in vitro and in vivo. This biodegradable MoOx nanoplatform with synergetic PTT and PDT functionalities upon 1064 nm irradiation provided emerging opportunities for the phototherapy of cancer in nanomedicine.

Abstract
The consumption of oxygen in photodynamic therapy (PDT) significantly exacerbates the degree of hypoxia in tumors, which not only impedes the therapeutic effect of PDT, but also drives local tumor recurrence. To relieve the PDT-induced hypoxia and improve the therapeutic outcome of PDT in cancer treatment, herein we reported a class of Bi2WO6 nanoparticles (NPs) as a robust multifunctional platform, which integrates the abilities for contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) imaging, photothermal therapy, and PDT in an oxygen-free manner. The as-obtained Bi2WO6 NPs with a mean diameter of 5.2 nm are stable in phosphate-buffered saline and an in vivo microenvironment-mimicking buffer. The location of the solid tumor could be accurately positioned using Bi2WO6-enhanced CT with higher spatial resolution. After being irradiated with an 808 nm laser, these Bi2WO6 NPs could realize CT-guided local photothermal ablation of the tumor. Meanwhile, •OH radicals were generated simultaneously from the treatment without consuming an oxygen molecule, which enabled these Bi2WO6 NPs to exert photodynamic killing effect in an oxygen-free manner during cancer therapy. Remarkable tumor suppression was observed in mice bearing the HeLa xenograft, supporting the promising application of these multifunctional Bi2WO6 NPs in the combat against cancers through synergistic photothermal and oxygen-free PDT treatment.

Abstract
Nowadays, photodynamic therapy (PDT) is under the research spotlight as an appealing modality for various malignant tumors. Compared with conventional PDT treatment activated by ultraviolet or visible light, near infrared (NIR) light-triggered PDT possessing deeper penetration to lesion area and lower photodamage to normal tissue holds great potential for in vivo deep-seated tumor. In this review, recent research progress related to the exploration of NIR light responsive PDT nanosystems is summarized. To address current obstacles of PDT treatment and facilitate the effective utilization, several innovative strategies are developed and introduced into PDT nanosystems, including the conjugation with targeted moieties, O2 self-sufficient PDT, dual photosensitizers (PSs)-loaded PDT nanoplatform, and PDT-involved synergistic therapy. Finally, the potential challenges as well as the prospective for further development are also discussed.

Abstract
The development of agents for noninvasive photothermal/photodynamic therapies (PTT/PDT) against cancer remains challenging because most PTT agents cause side effects on normal tissues due to their high cytotoxicity and slow metabolism rate. We successfully synthesized an organic compound (C3), encapsulated in PEG-PCL with indocyanine green (ICG), to form hybrid nanoparticles (PEG-PCL-C3-ICG NPs) for use as a new PPT/PDT agent to treat cancer with a single irradiation. Compared with conventional PPT agents, such as Au nanorods, C3 showed better photothermal conversion stability, lower cytotoxicity and a faster metabolic rate, ensuring promising PTT efficacy in eliminating tumors during in vivo application, while ICG was used as a PDT agent. With 808 nm laser irradiation at tumor sites, the PEG-PCL-C3-ICG NPs were able to simultaneously produce hyperthermia through C3 and produce reactive oxygen species as well as a fluorescence-guided effect through ICG to kill oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells. The combination of these hypotoxic and metabolic hybrid nanoparticles with radiation therapy has potential for the future treatment of OSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nanotechnology is a promising area in industry with a broad range of applications including in the agri-food sector. Several studies have investigated the potential benefits deriving from use of nanomaterials in the context of the whole food chain drawing scenarios of benefits but also potential for concerns. Among the agri-food sector, animal production has potential for nanomaterial application but also for safety concerns due to the possibility of nanomaterial accumulation along the farm-to-fork path. Scope and Approach: The aim of this work was to define the state of the art of nanomaterial applications in the animal production sector by assessing data belonging to recently publishes studies. To do this, a qualitative synthesis approach was applied to build a fit-for-purpose framework and to summarise relevant themes in the context of effectiveness, feasibility and health concerns. Key findings and conclusions: Nanomaterials have potential for use in a wide range of applications from feed production and farming to food packaging, including several detection tools designed for the benefit of consumer protection. The current high degree of variability in nanomaterials tested and in study designs impairs external validation of research results. Further research is required to clearly define which safe nanomaterial applications have the potential to reach the market.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the therapeutic capacity of D-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS)-functionalized nanographene oxide (nGO) in breast cancer cells. METHODS TPGS-functionalized nGO-based materials were obtained through two different approaches: a simple sonication method and a one-pot hydrothermal treatment. RESULTS TPGS coating successfully improved the stability of the nGO-based materials. The nanomaterials that underwent the hydrothermal procedure generated a 1.4- to 1.6-fold higher temperature variation under near infrared laser irradiation than those prepared only by sonication. In vitro, the TPGS/nGO derivatives reduced breast cancer cells' viability and had an insignificant effect on healthy cells. Furthermore, the combined application of TPGS/nGO derivatives and near infrared light generated an improved therapeutic effect. CONCLUSION TPGS/nGO derivatives are promising materials for breast cancer phototherapy.
